It’s nice that the file browser can hook up to my Dropbox account. However, it does not appear that the file browser can generate thumbnail images of the files in it. I get thumbnails for all of my local files, just not the Dropbox content. Is this as designed, or is there a way to get thumbnails for the Dropbox images to show up?

Update...After rummaging around the web, I ran across others who were having the same problem. One suggestion was a hard reboot of my iPad. For whatever reason, it seems to have worked. I haz thumnails.

I should clarify: Most files that get put on my iPad or iPhone (like pictures) have a file name assigned, and I'm not the one naming the file. I usually don't worry about it. But if I want to use a picture from Camera Roll somewhere else, it's got whatever name it got when it was taken, and I can't (seem to, anyway) rename the pictures IN the Camera Roll. And of course the File Browser doesn't list what's taken care of in Photos...
